Report: Charlie Sheen's Wife Checks Into Rehab

Brooke MuellerBrooke Mueller -- Charlie Sheen's wife -- has reportedly checked into a North Carolina drug and alcohol treatment center.

TMZ has learned Brooke and her mother flew by private jet to Elizabeth City Regional Airport in North Carolina yesterday. They landed at 5:58 PM ET. Brooke told people at the airport, "I'm not feeling very well."

The pilot told airport employees Brooke would be in North Carolina "for about a week."

As we first reported, Brooke was released from the hospital yesterday after fighting pneumonia but still had fluid in her lungs.

Sources tell TMZ the pneumonia Brooke suffered last week was a secondary situation -- her immune system had become so weakened by substance abuse that she became susceptible to infection.Brooke Mueller and Charlie Sheen

Good Gawd....The demons never seem to disappear....Yes, stellar parents. Maybe Denise should take care of all the Sheen children as she is seemingly the sane one out of the three of them.

I guessed this one a couple of days ago ... same thing happened to my husband who had long term alcohol problems. To my surprise, I found alcoholics are more prone to pneumonia - along with a wide assortment of other health issues.

GOOD! Charlie doesn't need this BS. He has SUCH bad taste in women, but now that they're married with babies, I hope she can pull herself together and grow up. Charlie has come so far and I hate to see him dragged threw the mud again.

Not surprising. Charlie & Brooke are both druggies. I feel for those little babies. I hope she wasn't taking or drinking while pregnant. I really feel bad for Denise. I lost respect for her when it first came out about Charlie and all the bad stuff. Now, I'm so back on team Denise. She was right. He is an a$$hold. Abusive, druggie, porn lover and marries a freak who just wants to have her 15 minutes of fame. I hope someone cares for those little boys. Get them out of the care of these two douches!!!

As a respiratory therapist who treats pneumonia.
You generally have a weakened immune system if your pneumonia causes a hospitalization in the ICU.
At her age I did think it was probably due to drugs or drinking.
They shouldn't have procreated.

When is Charlie going? So, he hits her, chokes her, scares the crap out of her and sends her to rehab. I think maybe those kids should stay with Gramma while Mommy & Daddy get some help and a divorce. Charlie is clearly abusive and continues to abuse his wives. I think he needs to be alone until he learns how to treat a woman.

It's really too bad these selfish people can't get their addictions and pathetic lives in check BEFORE they choose to bring children into this world.
